Missing
ATB feat. Tiff Lacey Lyrics

I step off the train I'm walkin' down your street again
I disembark from the train and am traversing through your vicinity once more

Past your door, but you don't live there anymore
I stroll past your entrance, although you no longer reside there

It's years since you've been there and now you've disappeared somewhere
It has been ages since your presence was last felt, and you have since vanished to an unknown location

Like outer space, you've found some better place
You are somewhere far away, as if in the depths of space, having found a more suitable destination

And I miss you like the deserts miss the rain
I yearn for your presence as much as barren, arid lands long for precipitation

Could you be dead? You always were two steps ahead of everyone
Is it possible that you have passed away? You always exhibited an advanced level of thinking, surpassing everyone else

We'd walk behind while you would run
While we walked, you would always sprint ahead of us

I look up at your house and I can almost hear you shout down to me where I always used to be
As I gaze towards the property where you once dwelled, I can almost hear you cry out to where I had previously stood

Back on the train, I ask why did I come again
As I board the train and depart once more, I ponder why I felt compelled to return

Can I confess I've been hangin' 'round your old address?
May I admit that I have been loitering around the site of your former residence?

And the years have proved to offer nothin' since you moved
The passage of time has yielded no significant value since you vacated

You're long gone but I can't move on
You have been absent for quite some time, however I am still unable to progress forward

And I miss you, yeah, like the deserts miss the rain
I am deeply affected by your absence, akin to the way parched lands long for rainfall

Deserts miss the rain, like the deserts miss the rain
Dry, lifeless territories have a yearning for showers, much like my longing for your presence
